Description

The Babolat Xcel Tennis String is engineered for players seeking superior comfort, feel, and power on the court. Closely mimicking natural gut, it offers excellent shock absorption, making it gentle on the arm while delivering outstanding playability. With Babolat's heritage in string innovation since 1875, Xcel ensures consistent performance and reliability, whether in new or old packaging.

Specifications
Key Features
  • Exceptional Comfort: Polyamide fibres wrapped in a polyurethane matrix create high elasticity for a soft, forgiving feel that is gentle on the arm.
  • Enhanced Power: Twisted fibre construction provides excellent responsiveness and pop, ideal for players with shorter swings who want deep, penetrating shots.
  • Long-Lasting Tension: Strong tensile strength helps retain tension over time, maintaining racquet performance between re-strings.
  • Trusted Innovation: Developed by Babolat, a pioneer in tennis string technology since 1875.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is the Babolat XCEL 200M 1.25 (17) best suited for?

Multifilament strings are the go-to for players who prioritise arm-friendliness, comfort and a soft feel - especially players with tennis elbow, older players and flat-ball hitters. They play closest to natural gut at a fraction of the price.

What does the 1.25 mm (17 gauge) gauge mean?

The 1.25 mm (17 gauge) indicates the string's thickness. This is a medium gauge, balancing feel, spin and durability - a popular choice for all-round play.
